Sedona Vineyard Wedding

vandammeweddings — Thu, 10 Nov 2011 21:15:44 +0000

Valerie and Ryan were married at the beautiful Page Springs Cellars Vineyard in October. The couple, wine club members and lovers of great food were excited to have their wedding at the vineyard. The planning process was interrupted when Ryan’s work took him across the country. Valerie then had to concentrate on wrapping up her job in Arizona, pack up and move to North Carolina pick up the planning again in order to get back to Arizona for the wedding. The wedding day was perfect. Guests were transported to the vineyard for the ceremony by the creek. Family and close friends enjoyed a sunny afternoon with great food catered by the Heartline Café and carefully paired wines from the winery. Courtney Yeates and Lindsay Katz -Cellist/vocalist and guitarist provided music. Bliss Floral created beautiful arrangements in brilliant fall colors. Iffy Yossifor captured the day and event planner Margaret Van Damme coordinated the day.

Bow Ties

Guys have recently been seen sporting fun, colorful bow ties for their wedding attire. The classic is back, trendy and hip. A splash of color, polka dots or stripes adds certain flair to the less formal wedding or great at a vintage wedding. And of course the black formal bow tie is always elegant. Here are a few I spotted on the web.

Vineyard Wedding

Samantha and Bryan were married October 23, 2010 at the beautiful Page Springs Vineyard. After ten years together and two beautiful children, Bryan and Samantha decided to tie the knot. The wedding celebration was full of love and small details that reflected the couples love of family, friends, good food and great wines. Not being cake lovers, the couple passed up the traditional and instead had a pie table. Family members made beautiful and delicious pies that were a hit with all the guests. The estate style seating looked beautiful among the estate vineyards. Congratulations Samantha and Bryan.

Vineyard Wedding

We are honored today by having our Vineyard Wedding shoot featured on another great blog, Ruffled one of the best wedding blogs around. Thanks Amanda, we heart Ruffled.

“Vintage and vineyards are two styles that we rarely see together. Lucky for us, Margaret of Van Damme Weddings designed this concept shoot inspired by a vintage Italian vineyard from the 40s. I am specially loving the mismatched vintage plates and the barrels decorated with flowers at the entrance of the aisle. Shot by the wonderful duo Katrina and Andrew of Sedona Bride”

Wine Cork Place Card Holders

Stacy of Le’ Gallery Boutique in Scottsdale recently sent me these samples of her work with wine corks. These are great custom handcrafted wine corks made by Stacy in Scottsdale Arizona. They make wonderful place card holders and napkin rings for our Vineyard Weddings in Sedona. Of course they work beautifully for any special occasion or event you may be having. These repurposed wine corks are a good eco-friendly choice for your event. I am looking forward to using them for an outdoor summer event.

A Good Ending to 2009

This is our last wedding in December 2009. Our beautiful couple decided to elope to the serenity of Sedona after their guest list reached somewhere near 600. They were very happy to enjoy the moment, take in the beauty and peace of a winter at Red Rock Crossing and share the vows they wrote to each other. They will celebrate in the spring with a grand party for friends and family in their new home.

Congratulations Tara and Brent. Images by Pamela Duffy. Wedding by Van Damme Weddings Flowers by Ken Heflin at Events by Showstoppers and music provided by Magdalena Wolf.

Unique Sedona Wedding Venues

vandammeweddings — Sun, 01 Nov 2009 17:12:43 +0000

Sedona wedding venues can provide just about any combination of amenities brides and grooms are looking for.

Some of my favorite venues are off the beaten path, away from the usual resort, bed and breakfast, Inns, or halls.

These can be Ranches, Farms, Barns, and State Parks. One of my favorite places is the Dancing Apache Lodge. Located in the beautiful Verde Valley and minutes away from Sedona; it has privacy, a sense of seclusion a beautiful pond and stream running through the property and its own vineyard. Best of all; beautiful outdoor spaces for ceremony, reception and dancing.

The 4,000 sq ft log home is perfect for a week-end celebration. Contact us at Van Damme Weddings (928-282-5067) to design and book your unique wedding at the Dancing Apache Lodge.

Our very talented friends at Cameron + Kelly Studio sent this beautiful wedding they recently shot at the ranch. You will love this slide show.
